NEW YORK, N. Y., A CURPORATION OF NEW YORK FINISHED PATTERN AND METHOD OF MAKING Application filed. June 23,

This invention relates to an improved nethodof manufacturing tissue-paper pat- .erns, as well as to the finished articles proluced thereby.

It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved method of producing pattern sections, according to which the cost of manufacture of the finished pattern sets is materally reduced.

A further object is that of providing a simple and efficient method of manufacture which permits any one of a plurality of differently'sized pattern sets to be constructed from common blanket sheets.

An additional object is that of furnishing a method which may readily be practiced by a relatively unskilled person, and according to which finished articles will be produced which may be more efliciently employed.

.Another object is to provide improved means for use in the production of finished pattern sections.

Other objects of the invention will in part beobvious' and will in part appear hereinafter.

3 the features, properties,

1 "Fig. illustrates patterns shown in The invention accordingly comprises the several steps and the relation and order of one or more of such steps with respect to each of the others, and the article possessing and the relation of elements, which are exemplified in the following detailed disclosure, and the scope of the application of which will be indicated in the claims. I

For a fuller understanding of the nature and objects of the invention, reference should be had to the following detailed description taken inconnection wlth the accompanying drawings, in which:

. Fig. 1 is a planview of a printed blanket sheet; I

Fig. 2 shows this sheet with the master patterns applied thereto;

Figs. 3, 4:, 4, 5, 5 and 6 are detailed illustrations of various finished pattern sections; in detail one of the master ig.

marks from those illustrated in the preceding figures; and

Fig. 9 shows a master pattern such as may be used in connection with the sheet illustrated in Fig. 8.

In practicing the method to produce finished articles having the hereinafter stated characteristics, it will be understood that, given a garment of a certain design, a pattern cutter will in accordance with this invention provide a number of difierent sized sets of master patterns, each including a series of cooperable unit pattern sections, by means of which the desired garment may be reproduced in different sizes.

By using one of these sets of patterns a plate or series of plates is laid out, and by means of which a blanket sheet may be printed. A web of material, as, for example, tissue paper, is now run through the printing press and subdivided in order to produce a suitable number of sheets, one of which is indicated at 10 in Fig. 1.

According to the present invention the pattern designer at the time of the production 0 the different sets of master patterns will indicate, preferably, an outline of the various manipulation to which the pattern sections are to be subjected. At this time, the master patterns are also provided with certain keymarks, as well as indications, and all of this indicia is incorporated in the plate or series of plates, by means of which the blanket sheets are printed.

Thus, referring to Fig. 1, it will be noted that the blanket sheet has a number of different sections, as, for example, cuff A, sleeve H, front K, back J, etc. Each of these sections, in addition to having an identifying mark 11, has keymarks, which in the present instance take the form of a trade-mark insignia or distinctive symbol 12. It is furthermore preferred that each section of the blanket sheet bear certain written instructions for' the user or other data indicating certain portions of its surface, as has been indicated at 13 and 14.

After a desired number of blanket sheets is produced they are arranged in the form of a stack, care being taken that the edges of entinstance that the corresponding in V blanket sheetsinthe stack, andeach ofi'these the sheets are in each other.

The master pattern sections, as, for example, 15 to 36 inclusive, are now arranged, as in Fig. 2, upon the uppermost of the stack of blanket sheets. In this connection it shouldbenotedyas has been indicated in "Fig. 7, in which the master pattern 30 has been illustrated in detail, that the master pattern preferably has a code *or other suitable indication 37, by meansof which the arranging of this pattern over thecorresponding section of the blanket sheet is greatly facilitated. In order to obtain exact registration between the master pattern and the underlying blanket sheet it willinow .be observed that the master pattern may be provided with keymarks correspon'din to the keymarks12 on the blanket sheet, iit beingnoted in the preskeymarks of the master pattern are in thefor1n of openings 38, correspending in outline to the keymarks12 appearing upon the blanket sheet. Asia consequence, it will be understood that an open .ator, by bringing the edges :of the openings 38 into registry with ithe outline of the keymarks 12, will be readily enabled to arrange the master patternsections .to cover exactly those portions vof *a blanket sheet to which they correspond, and after the parts arezthus arranged themaster-patterns maybe secured to the stack of sheets in any desirable manner.

While thus held the outline of the master substantial registry with pattern is traced, and .a'band saw may be utilized .to cut Ethrough .the stack and rthus provide a plurality .ofstacksofrunit pattern sections. Drills may also used to :pass through theopenings 39 in the master pattern to punch corresponding openings in the amderlying stack of blanket sheets.

After the outlining: and cuttingoperation hasbeencompleted, it will be found that a stack of pattern sections has been produced number to the number of sections will correspond exactly to the out line of :the master 1 pattern and will have all of the characteristics of the-same,.'as,for-example, perforations and notches. Also, "in the-eventfthat all-ofthe aforadescribed indicia is applied to the blanket sheet,l each of thesections, as in Figs. 3, 1?, 5 and6, will present code-marks '11, and instruction data orother suitable indicia .13 and 14:, it being understood in connection with the latter that itispreferred that each set of patterns beaccompanied by an instruction sheet indicating'in detail the manner in which each pattern section is .to be manipulated and the mode of association of the same with'other sections, this instruction sheet referring to the indicia' on the finished pattern sections. 7 From the foregoing it will be understood that a method is provided bymeans of'which 7 1n the' preceding figures.

finished pattern sections are produced eaci of which will correspond in outline to the gal ment section which is to be cut, and whicI may carry full instructions and other suit able indicia serving to facilitate the use of th pattern set. V

Inaddition to the foregoing, 'itwill'be ob served'that by means of the present construe tion'it is only necessary to provide one pla-tr 'or'series cfplates, inorder to furnishsets'o: pattern sections 'ofdiflerent sizes. In othei w0.rds,.assu1ning that. it .is .desired to furnish sets .of pattern" sections three different sizes,.a numberof blanket sheets are provided, and arranged in stacks corresponding in numberito the number'of. difierentsized sets to be furnished; Thereafter, differently sized sets ofzmaster patterns are arranged in the manner afore-described over thetproper sections of the different stacks-of blanket sheets.

The outlining, operationszare now r sorted to, and finished pattern sections will be produced. Certain of these-sections have rbeenshownattO, 41, t2z'a'nd l3 inFigse3, 4-, 5 andb, respectively. Smaller sections ,than'thoseindicated at 40 1 1,112 and-.43 have been shown att, 45, Miami 47, and still smaller sizedsectionshave been indicated at 48;, 49, 5 0 and 51, it being noted that, .due: tozthe of the blanket sheets" and .master patterns, when these parts are in registry, different sized inaster patterns may be employed to produce Virtually any desired size ofpattern section (Within reasonable limits). i

It will thus be understood that'thestack of blanket sheets previcusly. referred'to is, in the present instance, subdivided into three individual stacks, are outlinediby sets of difi erent sized master patterns in order to produce sets of finished pattern'sections of diflerent sizes, as :at 40, 44andt8, and itis to be appreciatedthatthe indicia offtheiblanket sheets is soarranged that it is disposed Withinthe area'covered by thesmallest of the master-patterns which is to be-associated therewith. Each ofthese in dividual stacks will be outlined,- perforated and notched according to the individual characteristics of the :master patterns which areemployed for this purpose, and although, incident :to .the defects occurring in connection with printing and stacln'ng the sheets the indicia on consecutive sheets may. fall in slightly difi erent positions, the notches,:perforations, etc. used'in connection with the indicia will neverthelessbe-substantially adja cent the same,so that no confusion mayarise inthe use of the pattern sections. v r 7 Referring finally toFigs..8. and 9 :it will be understood that any desirable keyinarks may be employed in lieu ofthe keymarks shown e For example, the blanketsheet may 'have each of its "sections perforating and rnotching peculiarities of the keymarksw the similar sections of which I ovided with keymarks 52 of different con- ;urations, and each master pattern may .ve keymarks 53 in the nature of openings rresponding in outline to the keymarks 52 the blanket sheet. It is obvious in this nnection that similarly to the keymarks .own in Figs. 1 to 7 inclusive the keymarks Figs. 8 and 9 act in an indicating manner, that in order to obtain proper registry beveen the keymarks of the master pattern and Le uppermost blanket sheet it will be neces- .ry first to apply the master pattern to the .anket sheet in such a manner that it covers iat portion of the same to which it correaonds, and secondly, that it is applied to that ortion in such a manner that a perfect fin- :hed pattern section will be produced.

From the foregoing it will be understood iat the expense of preparing a difierent late or plates for each size of pattern secions is avoided, aside from the fact that all ther expenses incident to these differences in fmension are also eliminated, and that by oeans of the present invention it is practicaile to utilize blanket sheets corresponding in ize and arrangement of indicia, etc., to proide finished corresponding pattern sections )f different sizes. This is accomplished Without the sacrifice of the indicia, and with- )ut necessitating any other changes than are .nvolved in substituting a master pattern of one size for that of another size.

Thus, the objects of this invention are ac- :omplished, and since certain changes in carrying out the above process, and certain modifications in the article which embody the invention may be made without departing from its scope, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanying drawing shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.

It is also to be understood that the following claims are intended to cover all of the generic and specific features of the invention herein described, and all statements of the scope of the'invention which, as a matter of language, might be said to fall therebetween.

Having described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:

1. In combination, a blanket sheet and a master pattern, a keymark upon said blanket sheet and a keymark in the form of an opening incorporated in said master pattern, said master pattern to be applied to said blanket sheet, the keymark upon the latter appearing within the keymark opening upon the former when the parts are properly correlated.

2. A method of manufacturing patterns of similar outline but different sizes, which includes preparing a plurality of blanket sheets to have indicia thereon disposed within the area of the smallest pattern to be out therefrom, subsequently arranging said blanket sheets in different piles, placing'a master pattern upon the upper sheet of each pile and covering the indicia upon said sheet in predetermined relationship thereto, the master patterns being of similar outline but each differing in size from the others and thereupon cutting the sheets of each pile along the lines indicated by the master pattern to provide a series of pattern sections.

3. A method of manufacturing a garment pattern, which comprises providing a blanket sheet of severable material having a plurality of groups of indicia thereon explanatory of the manipulations to which a corresponding garment portion is to be subjected and having a distinctive keymark disposed within the area embraced by each of said groups; applying to each of said areas a unit pattern section of a master pattern set having a keymark corresponding to the keymark of that particular group and having an area and shape such as to include within its outline said group; and thereafter cutting said blanket sheet along the outline of said unit pattern sections; said groups of indicia being so disposed. on said sheet with respect to each other as to allow of master pattern sets of varying sizes to be used as aforesaid without interference of the units thereof.

a. In combination, a blanket sheet of severable material having a plurality of groups of indicia thereon explanatory of the manipulations to which a corresponding garment portion is to be subjected and having a distinctive keymark disposed within the area embraced by each of said groups, and a master pattern set comprising a plurality of unit pattern sections, each of said sections having an interiorly disposed distinctive keymark adapted to be registered with the keymark of one of said groups, and having an area and shape adapted to include within its outline said group, said group-s of indicia being so disposed on said sheet with respect to each other as to allow of master pattern sets of varying sizes to be used as aforesaid without interference of the units thereof.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature.

MAX HERZBERG.
